Beat The Clock At adidas City Run 1 Hour

The adidas City Run 1 Hour brings a twist to the normal running race. It's not a 10K nor a 10 mile race although it could be either depending on the individual.

The unique challenge is to run as far as you can in one hour so a sound race plan is essential. Set off as if you are running a 5k and you'll have shot your bolt before half-way. Dawdle at marathon pace and you'll finish fresh but disappointed because your running buddy has gone a kilometre further.

A lot of the fun around the adidas City Run 1 Hour is in the unusual format which will intrigue those of us who've settled for the standard 10K before.
